This one’s for you, seabass hunters who are not put off by the hardships of winter sea, exposing yourself to the combined aggression of cold water and wind. When you embark on a boat in the cold season, even if the weather is good, you now your main concerns are to stay warm and dry, and visible in the worst case scenario you become the guy lifeguards are fishing for. Grundéns does what you need. These guys are Swede, and they provide North Sea workers with dependable and very well conceived gear. So I think I’m going to buy the Brigg 34 Anorak for the next cold salt fly season. Tough, completely sealed (for when Fret’ decides it’s time to be playful in the waves with a strong headwind). Neoprene cuffs for when you dip your hands (hopefully when releasing a good fish). A cut designed for work, hence also allowing you to cast. And good looks too. Add two thermic layers under it and sail on.
